Have they put halo on there as well?

From what I can gather it looks like it is

Nice. Thats my late night can’t be bothered to play anything tv sorted for a bit then.

Today I'm finding everything is working as normal again except the 50pt Achievement reward is still dodgy and the mutliplayer PC one still isn't registering. Basically potentially 1500 points per 10 days lost if it continues

Age of Empires normally works for me for this, but it has been failing me recently. Tried playing Rubber Bandits today after AoE didn't work again and it popped after 5-10 mins of online play.

Searches are all fine now just the AMEM 50points tile that won't unlock for me

No xbox or LG TV app in UK yet though... bah.

Also Halo and Star Trek have only the first 3 episodes and will release weekly... for some stupidly absurd reason.
Might want to hold off on activating the trial until as late as possible

Tried Age of Empires last night but to no avail. Ended up giving Halo Infinite one last push and 2 minutes to midnight the MP PC reward finally pinged. The Xbox Achievement 50pt one was the only one that failed yesterday.

You'd think they'd all work or not at all, it's so selective

Bit flipping late for coop now 343. That boat has sailed and long sunk.

Co-op ing a game is still fun, but its definitely diminished if everyone who owns a series has already cleared the campaign. Probably multiple times.

It's very late arriving, but I'll be trying it out. As I understand it they're adding new achievements and adding a few extra things into the mix here as well.

I think the biggest thing learnt here is there's been huge inner turmoil in 343. There's been high attrition with a lot of recent departures. Without knowing the full story it's hard to pinpoint the root cause but it's clear something wasn't right for a long time during development.

I wouldn't be surprised if some senior people get re-purposed over time...
